  • Body and Soul is an album by Joe Jackson, released in March 1984. The album was Jackson's seventh studio album. In the UK it peaked at #14. The tracks are a mix of pop and jazz standards and salsa, showcasing the U.S. #15 hit single "You Can't Get What You Want (Till You Know What You Want)". In a nod to its jazz standards influence, the cover art imitated that of an album by Sonny Rollins, "Vol. 2". The album was a modest commercial success, but after the four month long Body and Soul world tour concluded in July 1984, Jackson retreated. The tour had been, he later wrote, "the hardest I ever did; it came too soon after the last one, and by the end of it I was so burned out I swore I'd never tour again".
